21 and over

[creasy]

Well I am now officially 21 now and I feel better than I haven't felt this good since I was a senior in High School. You know those moments in life when things just seem to change and your perception is forever altered. Well I had one of those this last friday. I was with a few friends back in Humble seeing the new Bruce Wills flick Hostage and people were acting up but I let it go since I was not working, and had not worked for 2 and a half months. Well this one guy kept pushing it and I kicked him out without a uniform, just by intimidating him to where he backed down then I got my friends who worked there to escort him out. Usually kicking people out is not a big deal, but the uniform gives you the authority. For the first time I felt that it was me that made it happen and not the uniform. I sorta feel like a man and all grown up now. It feels good. The funny thing is that upon the advent of my birthday, before spring break I was talking to my father about when is it that you know you become a man. He said," I can't really say, but once it happens you will know."" Man was he right. I no longer feel like a kid at all. I feel like a man now, its just wierd how fast that can happen. In other news I got an iPod for my birthday, that my parents had engraved it is my baby. I love it. It makes everything so enjoyable. I look forward to walking to class because I can listen to any of the songs that I have ever had. And working out is no longer a chore because of the iPod. Unlimited diversity in music is awesome. For instance on thursday I did 3 30 minute cycles on the eliptical machine. It said I burned about 420 calories each time, which amounts to about 1280 all together. With the iPod the time just flew by. It was even dare I say it fun. Other stuff I got for my birthday are as follows: Fight Club, The incredibles, Return of Jafar, Alladin 3, Sinbad and the legend of the seven seas, SI: Swinsuit, 512 mb of ram, and the Batmobile from the new series. Most of that was in money form. Oh yeah and a Garfield stuffed animal, hey it was from my Mom, she always gets me a stuffed animal. Oh yeah and I would like to send a few heartfelt thank yous to the people who sent me birthday greetings. Especially, Drew, Audi, Kendal, Herb, and Mumbles. Oh yeah and I hear that the Pope is sick so if you are catholic or christian say a prayer for him before you go to sleep. I know I will.

Ok thats it

Peace Love and a Pillow
